We learn to write Android in an Ancient Greek way

With new 2016, Geektimes! As promised, I continue a series of publications about Android and Ancient Greek characters. If you, having used the previous post, became the happy owner of a device with support of an Ancient Greek font, then today your device will be able to write in an Ancient Greek way.

Let's begin with small retreat. To display the Greek font (I ask readers to allow me to call Ancient Greek Greek for brevity), we need to change a font. In the previous post options of a new font with which you will not feel differences from Roboto or Droid were offered. Today you will select and install the keyboard on Android.

We select the keyboard

The trend of the multilingual and convenient keyboard for Android arose relatively recently, and in this trend the Multiling O keyboard quite accurately is represented.

So, we download it on our device from Google Play and we set. We come into the application.

Setup of the keyboard

We install our keyboard, we pass safety confirmation. We include and select it.

We click on "To install dictionaries / plug-in".

We are offered to select the layout (plug-in). We select "More".

We click the picture with the image of the Ancient Greek layout.

We select "Apply Theme".

We confirm.

Now we set the layout.

We use on health

Let's try to write something in the Notes application.

Clicking the character an omega, we receive the choice of its different writing — we select diacritical characters from below and on top — an oksiya, a variya, perispomen, an iota interlinear (black examples of options, red — what we select are selected).

So, all with new 2016th year! On health use the Greek keyboard, all of good luck!
